Rise and fall Sundays 9pm

[Mouldyfoodhelp]

Not 100% sure what it's about but I'm gonna give it a go and didn't see a thread.

Google tells me it's from the creators of " The Traitors" a BBC hit from late last year and spawned versions around the world.

From what I can tell there's an elevator and meant to be rich and poor people and you can rise or fall in this " society" as I say I'm not too sure but let's see if others are giving it a go or know more.

I won't be watching live though unfortunately

Dont like Cheryl, sophie, jeff

@Brendabigbaps oh maybe - I briefly considered going back to that episode of MAFS to check before remembering I am an adult with a responsible job to do!

If Jeff gets promoted upstairs, he will he out

Too irritating

@Brendabigbaps

She was called Katie

Yes agreed re Jeff. I suspect he may think it's an age thing - and I hope it's not - but I think it's more likely to be his manner / personality. He may have years of leadership experience but he also comes across as a pompous know it all who takes too long to get to the point.

And Marina has it all hanging out too

Is it the unwritten rule of the penthouse?

And Jeff may have years of experience but can he navigate his way through with Gen Z or whatever these youngens are called

I don't think mentioning Snoop and Kanye is the way to go 😆

Katie was Adrian's friend. Not sure if she and Cheryl are the same?
Both a bit irritating certainly 🤣

Silly isnt it

They did eat dog food though. Hopefully you didnt do that whilst watching 🤪

Sophie is just awful, no personality, no charm, awful speaking voice. How she got a job as a news commentator (albeit at GBeebies) baffles me.

Jeff was unlikeable on Four Rooms and he's no better on this, he reminds me of a horrible megalomaniac teacher I had.

Yeah but I'm guessing they did it to be able to have older people if they wanted. I mean the challenges aren't pleasant but the term grafters is misleading.

What do they do for the rest of the time? The upstairs ones can spend hours doing their stunning makeup, removing body hair, making mock tails and not going in the hot tub, but the grafters don’t seem to have any diversions, not even a pack of greasy bent playing cards in their windowless crypt. Surely they must let them outside everyday for a bit of fresh air and sun , otherwise they will be coming down with rickets , (other vitamin deficiencies are available,)

Didn't Jeff request a pack of cards?

It doesn't seem like Sophie contributes anything to the Rulers so it won't be long till it's noticed (hopefully), one of the Grafters commented that she doesn't do anything.

Last nights episode the grafters had to
Look for one thing. And only two of them grafted for two minutes.
Hardly grafting!!

I'm not exactly sure what rachel brings to the penthouse. Do we think Rakshika or Marina will go tonight?

Rashika unfortunately. I think Matt will vote for her too.

I think the show is just adding different rules as it goes along which is annoying.

I meant Rachel! She doesn't really add anything useful. Jeff is irritating now and did the end of the episode say one Ruler would exchange with a Grafter?

Yes Rachel adds nothing and needs to go.

Loved that everyone was anti bringing up James as Marina was so enthusiastic about him and then they met Jeff as the alternative!

Yes I have been thinking that it's time one of the rulers has to go down rather than leave the programme.

That's tonight's viewing sorted then- love is blind season 4 and then this at 10 (no man in this house so am only competing with teen DC for the TV)

I'd be happy for Rishika to stay if she's a grafter as I think she will enjoy it a lot more - if the existing grafters accept her that is?

I think the result of the ruler to leave will go ahead.

I then think the remaining rulers are going to be able to choose a grafter to bring up. The twist will be that they then get to choose which one of the rulers replaces them downstairs.

The rulers don't seem to have realised that any rising grafters are going to form an alliance and oust the original rulers. Seems like a no-brainier to me.
Also, none of them are blaming Marina for the work shift failure. Its was entirely her decision to choose Joanna to find the metronome. They trusted her judgment as she said she knew the grafters better than them, but she made a huge mistake there.
2 reasons imo to vote off Marina.

I couldn’t believe how badly they failed the object task, I would have thought Joanna would know what a metronome was at least. But yes, bad on Marina. I really don’t like her, the way she talks down to Rishika is awful…

Matt or rachel going down?
